High Fructose Corn Syrup Free Paleo Filet Mignon with Herb Butter

Few cuts of beef feel as special as filet mignon, and this version delivers a steakhouse-worthy experience entirely from your own kitchen. The sear-to-oven method builds a deep, caramelized crust before finishing the steak to a precise medium-rare, so you get that tender, buttery interior every single time. What really elevates the dish is the herb butter — ghee whipped together with fresh parsley, thyme, rosemary, garlic, and a hint of lemon zest — which melts luxuriously over the hot steak the moment it hits the plate. Every ingredient here is whole and clean, which means none of the sweeteners or additives that sneak into so many store-bought marinades, sauces, or compound butters. Avocado oil handles the high-heat sear beautifully, and ghee brings a rich, nutty depth that regular butter simply can't match at these temperatures. It's an impressive dinner that looks like it took serious effort but comes together with just a handful of pantry staples and a cast iron skillet.
